We designed twelve types of weak polyelectrolytes (i.e., PEO-b-PMMA copolymers (BCP) in multi-arm structures, where six include EO blocks as joint points and the other six have MMA blocks as joint points). Of these, six are displayed; structures with EO blocks as joint points on the left, and those with MMA blocks as joint points on the right.
